"Faun and Nymph, " Art Deco Sculpture of Nijinsky in "Afternoon of a Faun"
By Fred Press
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This remarkable pair of "faun" and "nymph" sculptures memorializes the legendary performance of Vaslav Nijinsky as the Faun in Ballets Russes' renowned production of "Afternoon of a Faun" in 1912. Sculpted by Fred Press several decades later -- in the 1930s or 1940s -- the Faun captures the bold and sensual costume and headpiece of Nijinsky's character as designed by Léon Bakst, complete with spotted, form-fitting tights, a bare torso and a headpiece with horns in gold.

"Seated Figure, " Important Photograph of Male Nude by Barthe
By Richmond Barthé
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This original black and white photograph of one of Richmond Barthé's rare, little-known sculptures was taken by the famous studio of Morgan and Marvin Smith, who located on West 125th Street next to the renowned Apollo Theater. The Smith brothers moved from their native Kentucky to New York in the early 1930s, and proceeded to establish a studio that brought together almost every major figure in the Harlem Renaissance in the 1930s, 40s and 50s, mentoring artists such as Jacob Lawrence, Gwendolyn Knight, Selma Burke, Ernest Crichlow and Robert Blackburn. The Smiths captured the night life of Harlem, including musicians and actors such as Harry Belafonte, Sydney Poitier, Eartha Kitt, Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee, Count Basie, Ethel Waters, Billie Holiday, Hattie McDaniels, Zora Neal Hurston, Step n' Fetchit, Pearl...
